Bachelor of Engineering Flexible First Year Entry

Students wishing to proceed to the degrees of Bachelor of Information Technology, Bachelor of Computer Science and Technology, Bachelor of Engineering or combined degrees with Science, Arts, Commerce, Law or Medical Science may choose to enrol in one of the two options of the Flexible First Year program. For details on eligibility for entry to this program and second year stream entry requirements consult the Faculty resolutions pertaining to Flexible First Year.
Students must decide on the stream of Engineering or Information Technologies to pursue, once they have completed the Flexible First Year program.
Students will not need to decide their choice of Engineering or IT specialisation until the end of their first semester or the end of their first year, depending on their stream of choice.

Core units of study for Stream A specialisations

Core units of study for Stream A specialisations in the Engineering areas of Aeronautical, Aeronautical(Space), Biomedical, Chemical and Biomolecular, Civil, Mechanical or Mechanical(Space) can elect to choose this option.

Students wishing to proceed into the streams of Biomedical or Chemical should replace PHYS1001 with CHEM1101 Chemistry 1A as an alternate core unit.

Alternative units of study

Most units of study offered by the Faculty of Science shown in the tables can be replaced by an equivalent advanced level unit, subject to prerequisite conditions (as required by the Faculty of Science) being met. Students considering doing advanced options should seek advice from their school before enrolling.

Elective unit of study

In addition, a 6 credit point junior level unit of study must be chosen to complete the second semester enrolment. This is a free choice elective unit subject only to enrolment restrictions imposed by faculties on some specific junior level units.

Notes

1. Students wishing to proceed to the degree of Bachelor of Engineering in Biomedical or Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering should complete the first semester of this program and enrol in their chosen specialisation in Semester 2.
2. It is strongly advised that before choosing the second semester elective, students consult the requirements for the specialisation that they plan to enter as an appropriate choice of elective will help with core progression and prerequisite requirements for many areas.

Core units of study for Stream B specialisations

Core units of study for Stream B specialisations in the Engineering areas of Electrical, Electrical(Computer), Electrical(Power), Electrical(Telecommunications), Mechatronics, Mechatronics (Space), Software and Bachelor of Information Technology or Bachelor of Computer Science and Technology can elect to choose this option.
